Parent Info Night for FIRST Lego Robotics, Grades 4-8, June 24

Parents who are interested in robotics for their elementary/middle-school children are invited to an Info Night hosted by the LigerBots, to explain FIRST Lego League robotics to parents of students entering Grades 4-8 this fall.  It will be held on Wednesday, June 24, 7-9PM in Newton North HS’s Film Lecture Hall (just off the main school lobby at the Tiger Drive entrance; map; park in the lot off Elm Street).  FIRST Lego League immerses teams of up to 10 students, ages 9-14, in real-world scientific and technological problems.  Teams research and design solutions to a scientific question or problem and build autonomous Lego robots that compete in performing assigned missions.  This year’s challenge is Trash Trek.  Experience in FIRST Lego League prepares students well for high-school-level robotics with the LigerBots.  For more information, email fll@ligerbots.com or visit www.ligerbots.com.
